COVID 19

The developments of the last few days in Europe have an increasing influence on the production of semi-finished products in the engineering industry.

Some regions are completely stopping the production of non-essential goods, and in some cases strict curfews/travelbans have been imposed, including the way to work.

This is still not the case in Switzerland today.

The assembly ban for groups of more than 5 people is well respected, a strict curfew/travelban may be prevented by this disciplined behaviour.

Even under these difficult circumstances, COBIANCHI LIFTTEILE AG continues to produce safety gears, can prepare offers, accepts orders and delivers products.

Bottlenecks in the supply industry are compensated by COBIANCHI LIFTTEILE AG in the best possible way, but towards the middle of May, even with the greatest additional effort, the usual delivery time can be extended by up to three weeks.

This means:

Already confirmed delivery times are respected in the best possible way
New orders are confirmed according to the situation
Instead of 3-4 weeks, the standard delivery time can temporarily increase to 6-7 weeks. We are trying to prevent this, but we no longer rule it out completely due to the various state interventions.
Incoming stock orders for safety gears are only taken into account secondarly after commission-related units
Individual urgent units are still available in short deliverytime

According to current estimates by management, the increasingly tense situation will not improve until the third quarter of 2020.

The Swiss Confederation, through the Federal Office of Public Health BAG, has put the pandemic plan into effect with the aim of maintaining operations in companies while protecting employees.

COBIANCHI LIFTTEILE AG is following to this plan and is doing everything in its power to keep the supply chain strong and the empooyees save and healthy.

Stay healthy.
